Are There Zoos in Morocco? Yes — Here's Where

Yes. Morocco has two real zoos: Dream Village, on the road between Casablanca and Mohammedia, and the newly reopened Ain Sebaa Zoo inside Casablanca itself, which took its first visitors on 30 December 2025 after years shut. Between the two you can see lions, tigers, giraffes and more than 500 other animals without leaving the Casablanca area.

Which zoo to choose

Casablanca effectively has two zoos now, run by the same company. Dream Village came first, at Les Cascades, Sidi Moussa El Majdoub, on the road between Casablanca and Mohammedia: a modest zoo keeping lions, giraffes and tigers. Casablanca's city council later handed Dream Village a 20-year contract to revive the derelict Ain Sebaa Zoo inside the city itself, and it reopened on 30 December 2025 far larger — 13 hectares holding more than 500 animals across more than 75 species, split into zones for Africa, Asia and South America.

If you're staying in Casablanca and want the bigger, newer collection, Ain Sebaa is the one to pick; it's a short walk from a tram stop. If you're driving between Casablanca and Mohammedia, Dream Village is the more convenient stop.

Tickets and getting there

Prices below are checked as of September 2026. At Ain Sebaa Zoo, an individual adult ticket costs 80 dirhams and a child's 50 dirhams; a family package brings that down to 60 dirhams per adult and 40 dirhams per child, and there are further reduced rates: 50 dirhams for students and 30 dirhams for visitors with reduced mobility, with children aged 0-2 admitted free. At Dream Village, a day ticket costs 60 dirhams for adults and 40 dirhams for children, also free under 2, and every ticket is single-use only.

Ain Sebaa Zoo is a two-minute walk from the Préfecture d'Ain Sebaâ stop on tram line T2, with bus lines 33 and 82 also stopping within a minute's walk. Dream Village sits on the open road between the two cities, so a car or taxi is the practical way in.

With kids and accessibility

Ain Sebaa Zoo says every part of the park is accessible to visitors with reduced mobility, and it lends wheelchairs at the entrance to anyone who needs one — useful for pushchairs too. It opens 10am-8pm from March to October, 10am-6pm from November to February and 10am-5pm during Ramadan, so check the season before you plan a full day around it.

Dream Village doesn't publish specific accessibility details, but it is open every day of the week.

Other wildlife worth seeking out

Neither zoo is your only option if you're chasing animals elsewhere in the country, though the two below sit outside this directory's own listings. Near Agadir, Crocoparc in Drarga has kept 325 Nile crocodiles, plus giant tortoises, green iguanas, giant pythons, anacondas and marmosets, on 4 hectares since it opened in May 2015. Near Marrakech, a refuge called La Perle aux Oiseaux describes itself as dedicated to biodiversity conservation, 15 minutes from the city centre, with more than 100 animal species on 3 hectares.

For animals in the wild rather than behind a fence, the Atlas cedar forests are the place: most of Morocco's Barbary macaques live there, out of an estimated 12,000 to 21,000 left across Morocco and Algeria combined.
